I'm not sure about your model but I believe all Megapower models costs the same. I've bought it mine at $45 in MS Color, later to find out that Alan Photo sells it for $40.

Does any of you find that the Megapower batteries last much longer than the original batteries supplied by the camera's supplied battery? In my case, it's a Nikon.

The megapower BP-511 is rated at 1250mah which last a little longer... couple of friends and i got it btw S$45 - S$50 at MS color...

For my case, both are 650mAH. :P

I got mine from NAB NAB SLS at $42. The brand is megapower and the power rating is 1200mAH.

After using the original and the OEM batteries, I feel that the OEM outperforms the original batery. The contact of the OEM is gold-plated whereas the original is chrome. For a cheaper price and the performance, I strongly recommened all G2 users to get one or more of this battery.

If you want to get this battery, please go to NAB NAB and ask "How much is your OEM G2 battery har?" They will ask how many and how much u want to buy at? My friend went to ask about the G2 camera and also the battery and I guess the shop owner somehow knows that he is a non-G2 user. They quoted him $60 for it and I guess it's not worthwhile paying more for the same thing. The best is to organise a SEED and get it there and negotiate for a better price.
